Scott encouraged about Hornets' future

 
Byron Scott had a chance to chat with Michael Jordan last week when the two were in Orlando to watch prospects work out at a pre-draft camp. When they spoke, Scott, the NBA coach of the year, had yet to agree to a contract extension with the New Orleans Hornets. Jordan, now a part-owner of the Charlotte Bobcats, was curious about Scott's plans. "You're not really thinking about leaving Chris Paul, are you?" Scott recalled Jordan asking. "Nah, not really," Scott replied. (link)
